Looks like it is even better than the 50/2.0 FT version.

Hopes this is the ultimate lens of details.

The optical performance is as good as, if not better, than the 43 50mm f2.0.

Hmm, focus limiter, much faster AF, 1:1, price almost same as ZD50/2, still the best lens ever had on my 43 body if not for horrendous AF on m43 body, i would have kept it. Very interesting lens indeed.

Indeed, it is an interesting lens if you shoot macro with it. Fast AF, relatively quiet. Well built. The ability to produce an image with detail is :thumbsup: !

I let Mr (Robin) Wong poison you, see his Part 1 review. This should poison you and many others:devil: :bsmilie: I don't have his skills or passion for macro yet, but the 50F2 which he tested against 60/2.8 was one of my favorite lens for a long while.

USD499 from b&h. Singapore likely 699-799? just a guess.
